Sunset time in the capital.

A calm evening, cool breeze and some clouds are coming in over the Arabian gulf. A serene end to a fairly crazy week.

Have a safe evening Abu Dhabi.

I hope peace comes sooner rather than later to the region. πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ͺ

Ya we will head up that way in a bit. Stayed at the other many times when it was a Hilton. How’s the occupancy? Busy there?

SITREP from the Abu Dhabi corniche..

More people out and about this morning for exercise (even accounting for Ramadan).

I caught up with β€œthe boys” yesterday for a feed + pints, bringing some normalcy to the current regional tension..

We sat outside under an umbrella, bliss.

Good morning Abu Dhabi. πŸŒ‡πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ͺ

Wild night yesterday (Thursday night) with many missile alerts issued and intercepts occurring.

Really hoping for a quieter day today.

Stay safe everyone. Look after yourselves and your community.

Good morning Abu Dhabi. πŸŒ‡πŸŒ
A cloudy day ahead, hopefully with some rain.

A decent night by all accounts, no missile alarms for me in my location. Though interceptions were occurring, I slept through the night and now enjoying a walk on the corniche.

Stay vigilant, stay safe

So far it’s been relatively quieter today in Abu Dhabi. I hope it can stay this way.

Time for a morning walk on the Corniche. Quieter in the mornings during Ramadan but packed at night for post Iftar gatherings and those wanting to exercise. #AbuDhabi

Good morning Abu Dhabi. I hope everyone has a phenomenal day ahead. It’s now time for coffee and planning some work trips after a quick walk on the corniche. #AbuDhabi

RIP Greg Brown from the band Cake

14 year old me thought this was the coolest song ever. And I still love it today.

Time for some drinks at Saikindō the Japanese HiFi bar in the FourSeasons Abu Dhabi.

Love the vibe and aesthetic in here. The music is great too. I want this ceiling in my office.

A cool misty morning. Fisherman are out trying their luck on the calm corniche waters.

Salutations, dear connoisseurs of interpretive spatula dancing and fermented ambitions. May your path cross with that peculiar gentleman in the velvet cape who auctions off bottled laughter and refurbished clouds from his floating gondola in the municipal fountain. #sunrise

Exercise. #AbuDhabi corniche edition.

Humid cool air is heavy, paths topped with dew, but the twilight and watching the city spark to life is a great way to start the day.

Absolutely loved the new Natural History museum in #AbuDhabi. The architecture alone is worth a visit! It has an amazing array of artifacts from billions of years ago (meteorites) and an incredible line up of dinosaur bones and fossils plus other anthropological wonders. Found it a fun day out!
